Flashy outfits, huge posters, plush toys And unusual questions - big press conference, Vladimir Putin, a little reminiscent of a carnival, after all, reporters have to stand out, to attract the attention of the first person. This year this opportunity will receive over 1700 correspondents, besides most of various publications, from the giants of the world press and regional Newspapers. The lists very closely With the American wall Street Journal And German newspaper Spiegel coexist " Michurinskiy idea ", "Siberian character" And " the Birobidzhan star ". The event will last a couple of hours And will be a kind of summing up of the year. It is a long tradition. First, a press conference was held in the 14th corps of the Kremlin. But After its closure for repairs, And Then the demolition, the event moved to the Center of international trade on Krasnopresnenskaya embankment. the reason For the first meeting With the press in 2001 was the large number of requests for an interview With the new And unfamiliar as long as the state President. Look at the "live Putin" came five hundred correspondents. Communication lasted only half an hour - It was a short meeting, the head of the country had only twenty-two questions. By the way, in addition to the usual economic And political themes of commissioners, then the media were worried about the state of the Navy And the reburial of Lenin's body. each year the format is gaining more and more popularity, And Communication was delayed. The record was set in 2008: four hours and forty minutes Putin answered eighty issues. By the way, just that day sounded the famous phrase: "All these eight years I plowed Like a galley slave ". Then the Manager admitted: "All my life for these eight years - As long business trip which took me out of the normal schedule of human life." Putin, in truth, made a break. From 2008 to 2012, working on the post of Prime Minister, he never had the big press conferences. Dmitry Medvedev, who led the country in that period, in this format, With media workers did Not communicate. But as soon As Putin was again elected President of the annual meeting With the press was resumed. Moreover, With the same presumably the timing - in 2012, the conversation lasted four hours and 33 minutes. The curtain the head of the country noted that " the press conference, As the repair cannot be finished, only stopped." Press Secretary of the President Dmitry Peskov has told that this year In the leadership of the Russian Federation, in the 1st the discussion of international issues, such as the Russian-American relations." in spite of the unfavourable international market conditions " And will feature questions on the economy. Of course, regional correspondents will be interested in their own, local agenda." It is in the regions are completely different And do Not overlap. Roughly speaking, citizens in Vladivostok live themes other than those Than live, For example, in Krasnoyarsk, " explained Sands. It is from this place, from the fields, And come in the most colorful participants in press conferences. So, everyone remember Maria Solovenko from Vladivostok newspaper " National Veche ", which took place subsequent dialogue With Putin: "Sit down, Masha ".- "Thank You, Vova ". Or the Kirov journalist Vladimir Mamatov, who did advertising Not only themselves, But also " Vyatka kvass ". After receiving the microphone, the journalist spoke a Few inaudible. Thought he was drunk." I feel kvas, then waved, " smiled Putin. Mamatov noted that he And the President would be treated with kvass, " But security wouldn't let me carry ". And Michael the Tooth from Murmansk last year stunned: "I lied to you - I'm Not a journalist no ". To get accreditation And to get to the press conference Putin, Director of the Murmansk fish processing plant is settled in a regional magazine. And he did So Not for the first time, because " 3 and a half years the ground chew, break, to survive." Then the Director of the enterprise gave to the President chetyrehsotletney report About the problems of the fishing industry. And still the most surefire way to attract attention is to look gaudy. The real star of one of the press conferences was the guest of Khanty-Mansiysk appeared in the national costume deer hunters. To heighten the effect he enthusiastically knocked at shaman drum. Receiving the coveted microphone, the main thing - Not to get lost. Women generally worried more than men. And sometimes instead of the question just start to declare his love. On a press-conferences the Journalist from the newspaper " Sobesednik ", getting tangled in words And embarrassed, said that After talks With Putin her "my personal life" And She " got married at last."" Let's detail, explain everything that happens, " laughed Putin. "But Not for you!- exclaimed the girl.- As for your husband, don't misunderstand!" Hall laughed, Sands, resignedly buried his face in his hands." I Love you, - continued the girl, But in time taxied: - Love platonically..." And that's About it, he loves Putin, said he. In 2014, the head told How a "friend from Europe, a big boss" over a glass of vodka asked him: "do You love someone? And does someone love you?" And after hearing two positive response, exhaled With relief. All the details of Putin did Not elaborate. Told on a press-conferences he And his daughters. However, in just a few: live in Russia, business And politics are Not involved And star children have never been." I'm proud of them. My daughters say in 3 European languages on the East. Not only say, But use them at work. They make their first steps in their careers, But successful, "he said, again declining to disclose Details, has" security issues ". Last year's big press conference lasted 3 hours and 42 minutes, the head said 65 problems. When asked About his goals for the new presidential term, to talk About his election program Putin did Not, But indicated that, " without a doubt, Everything has to be designed to increase the incomes of our people." The opposition he gave to the Council to reach out To people With a positive program, Not a slogan " against all ". The lack of a clear program increases the probability of the cast To the fact that " the streets will run Saakashvili "." And You want such "Saakashvili" destabilized the situation in the country? Do you wish To be worried from one Maidan To another? Us to have been attempts of coups d'etat?" he asked Ksenia Sobchak, asking a question About whether the government is afraid of the Opposition. "I assure you, the government was Not afraid of anyone And Not afraid of anyone, - said Putin.- But the government should Not be like the bearded man, who lazily picks out the cabbage from his beard And looks at How the state is transformed into some muddy puddle from where the oligarchs pick out And catch the Golden fish, As we had It in the 90-ies And As is currently happening in Ukraine ". in the past year, only one in 30 have time to ask your own question. As before, the audience didn't have enough time. It doesn't matter lasts press conference 3 Or four hours time in the end a bit. At the end of the meeting, the citizens begin to jump to the ground, screaming, trying to break forward. A few years ago in such a situation With the back rows could be heard: "About love! About love!" "About love want? The longer we With you sit, the faster our love go into a strong dislike, " Putin joked, And still headed For the exit. And then came the heart-rending female shout. The journalist meant No harm, she just wanted an autograph Putin - boy, dream About the dog. Forcing the protection of the President worried, She still succeeded. <span style="color:darkgray
